Traffic cameras spotted the driver speeding across the bridge in Daytona Beach before catching some air with a risky leap as it opened. The incident on the city’s Main Street Bridge, which spans the Halifax River, left the crossing arm needing some repairs. “It’s absolutely against the law, that’s why the rails are there,” said Florida Safety Council spokesperson Bonnie Frank.
